For an Android phone, you have essentially five choices. They are laid out in this article.
http://blog.nature.org/science/2013/05/27/boucher-bird-blog-apps-smart-birde r/ I own Audubon, Sibley and iBird Pro for my Android phone and I also use National Geographic on my iPad, along with the Warbler Guide - which is the slickest of any of the apps, but only deals with Warblers. I personally use iBird Pro most when out in the field. I find it organized the best. I also like the similar species feature, which is very helpful when trying to ID terns and flycatchers, etc. It seems to have the best or among the best of each features. The Peterson, despite having the name of the great guides, is pretty basic. Sibley is the most expensive. It has no photos, just illustrations. Sibley has the most songs and they are identified by where they were recorded because regional differences do exist in bird songs.

I'm looking for something that has pictures and sounds please.
